As a critical service, you're needed to work 1 in 6 standby shifts to respond to incidents after hours and on weekends. Earnings are projected to consist of a base salary ranging £33,795 to £44,060 depending one experience in addition to £2,000-per-year average allowance for taking part in the standby rota. You'll be paid overtime for any call outs when on standby.
